Summary

This quote suggests that discussions within the field of architecture have excessively revolved around the concept of absolute truth. In other words, there has been an overemphasis on finding definitive answers and universal principles in architecture. This perspective implies a shift in focus is needed, advocating for a more open-ended and diverse dialogue within the architectural discourse. By recognizing the subjectivity and multiplicity of perspectives in architectural practice, new ideas and approaches may be welcomed, allowing for a more inclusive and adaptable discipline.
